Housecats are known to be aloof, but "cat-titude" reaches new heights in Get Fuzzy, the bitingly hilarious comic strip from cartoonist Darby Conley. Available daily and Sunday and appearing in 650 newspapers nationwide, Get Fuzzy is a wry portrait of single life, with pets. At the center of this warm and fuzzy romp is Rob Wilco, a single, mild-mannered ad executive and guardian of anthropomorphic scamps Bucky and Satchel. Bucky is a temperamental cat who clearly wears the pants in this eccentric household. Satchel is a gentle pooch who tries to remain neutral, but frequently ends up on the receiving end of Bucky's mischief. Together, this unlikely trio endures all the trials and tribulations of a typical family... more or less.
The National Cartoonists Society honored Get Fuzzy with a Reuben division award, naming it the Best Newspaper Comic Strip of 2002. There are a dozen Get Fuzzy compilation books published by Andrews McMeel: The Dog Is Not a Toy (House Rule #4); Get Fuzzy 2: Fuzzy Logic; Groovitude: A Get Fuzzy Treasury; The Get Fuzzy Experience: Are You Bucksperienced; Bucky Katt's Big Book of Fun; Blueprint for Disaster; Say Cheesy; Scrum Bums; Loserpalooza; I'm Ready for My Movie Contract; and Take Our Cat, Please; plus Get Fuzzy wall and box calendars.

Okay, we have Bucky’s opinion of grunge. I bet Satchel would say “oohh, can I sleep on that?”

And “Dirt Poor” is such an expensive look, too…
I’m reminded of Dolly Parton’s famous words: “It takes a lot of money to look this cheap.”

I’ve got two drawers full of old t-shirts. Classic ones from p-town on the cape[70’s-80’s] and else where.

Poor Rob – has he ever tried to have a girlfriend? We know Bucky would ruin that for him. I have to agree with Bucky. Rob is far from a fashion plate and a perfect victim for Bucky’s acid- tongued but very funny remarks.

Bucky’s “I’m not finished but I’m bored” line is right up there with his earlier “I’m not finished but I’m tired” line.
Every once in a while, Darby let’s Bucky have some really good lines…
